Today the card on my blog is a card I made for a Forest swap. I have been in several of the "Forest Friends" swap on SCS and they are wonderful swaps with a GREAT group of ladies!

Our challenge for this swap was to create any card with a forest theme. However, we were to use a recycled item on our card.

My image is "Maxwell" from Kraftin Kimmie Stamps and I thought he was just perfect for a forest themed swap. I used Natural White, Not Quite Navy, Ruby Red and Mellow Moss cardstock. My designer paper is from Cosmo Cricket. I created the flower in the corner with my scalloped circle and circle punches using a brown lunch bag my son brought home. I added an artichoke button to the center of the flower. I used my scalloped ovals and oval Nestabilities to frame the image.

Oh my goodness... I am squealing in delight! Debbie, this card is absolutely darling!!! You know how I love that Maxwell image (have ever since you gifted me with some images some time ago) and wow! What a fun card. Your recycled item is perfect, too!!!!

Too cute, DJ! That image is precious, and I love the way you combined your tree paper and the stamped leaves. The recycled lunch bag flower is perfect! Wonderful job and some lucky swappers are going to be VERY happy!

Oh what a cute card...I love this image....you have rocked this card. What an awesome job..I love how the the little mouse is toasting his marshmallow over the matchsticks...too funny...Great job my friend...
